The first four FULL pages (front and back) and the front of the 5th page will be your table of contents. Label them with Roman #s in the top corner ( I,II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX)
On the back of the fifth page, you will staple your syllabus for this class.
Starting with the page your syllabus is on you are going to number your pages L-1 (for left 1) and R-1 (for right 1) and go on until the end of your book.
You will be given color-coded learning charts and you will cut them out and glue them on the following pages
Reading: Literature (R-1)
Reading: Informational Texts (L-2)
Writing (R-2, L-3)

Your list of 10 most important events should be on page R-4
Your visual timeline should be on page L-5
Your table of contents should be filled out and up to date with the title of what is on the page and the page #
Each entry (besides the syllabus and learning charts) should have a date and a Learning Target Code- Ms. Wiltshire will let you know which codes to put on which activities.

Your name and period will be easily visible on the front cover
Your personalization will be neat and well done (no loose edges, stuff falling off, etc).
